iilSTOKlCAL SKETCH 

By Col. J. THOMAS SCHARF. 



LITTLE more than one liundred years after 
tlie discovery of this continent by Cabot, 
the first successful settlement was made in 
America on the Bay of Ciiesapeake — a 
word signifying in the Indian language 
" mother of waters." The London Com- 
pany received from James I, April 10th, 
1606, a patent of the land now covered by 
the States of North Carolina, Virginia, 
Maryland, Delaware and a large part of Pennsylvania, and 
sent out on the 19th of December, 1606, a band of colonists, 
one of whose leaders was Captain John Smith, who first 
exjilored the Chesapeake Bay. Tiiey settled at Jamestown in 
April, 1607, and founded the colony of Virginia. 

Exploration of the Chesapeake Bay. 

Soon after his arrival at Jamestown, Captain Smith projected 
the exploration of the Chesapeake Bay, and on the 2nd of June, 
1608, in an open barge of less than thi-ee tons burthen, with seven 
" gentlemen " and seven " soldiers," he crossed the bay to the 
Eastern shore, and, proceeding along the coast, searched "every 



inlet and bay fit for Iiarbors and habitations." From tlie 
Eastern Shore, he stood westward across the bay and made the 
mouth of the Patuxent. Passing nortliward he entered the 
Patapsco, to wliich, on account of the appearance of the soil 
along the cliffs, resembling bol ammonia, he gave the name of 
Bolus. After being absent twenty days, the discoverers of the 
site of Baltimore returned to Jamestown, but re-embarked on 
the 24th of July, after a rest of two days only, to finish their 
discoveries. During this voyage. Smith pursued the Patapsoo 
to its source, which was then inhabited by the Susquehan- 
nough Indians. Parting with these savages on friendly terms, 
he made his way to Jamestown, which he reached on the 7th 
of September. In these two voyages, Smith explored the 
whole of the Chesapeake Bay, and constructed an excellent 
map which still remains to us. 

George Calvert, the founder of Maryland, while clerk in 
the Privy Council of England, became a great favorite of 
James I, and in 1617 he was knighted and became Sir George 
Calvert. About 1619 he was made one of the Secretaries of 
State, and about 1621 he removed to Ireland, where the King 
had given him a large tract of land. 

Calvert in Neav Foundland. 

On the 7th of April, 1623, Calvert obtained from the King 
a grant of a tract of land in New Foundland, to which he 
sent out some colonists, giving the settlement the name of 
Avalon. In 1624, he resigned his office of Secretary of State, and 
in 1625 the King raised him to the Irish peerage as Baron of Bal- 
timore, in the County of Longford, Ireland. From this time for- 
ward he was known as Sir George Calvert, first Lord Baltimore. 

In 1628, Lord Baltimore visited his settlement at New 
Foundland, but finding the climate extremely severe, he 
embarked for Virginia, where he arrived in October, 1629. 
He now cast his eyes, for the first time, on the beautiful and 
fertile unsettled country on the shores of the Chesapeake Bay. 
Returning to England, he applied to the King for a grant of 
the territory, but before his Charter was signed he died, April 



15, 1632, leaving liis titles and estates to liis eldest son, 
Ceeilius Calvert, who became second Lord Baltimore, In his 
name the Charter was made ont June 20, 1632. Sir George 
Calvert at first thonght of calling the province Crescentia, bnt, 
at the King's reqnest, he gave it the name of Maryland (In 
Latin Terra Mariae), in honor of the Queen, Henrietta Maria. 

Settlement of Maryland. 

Having obtained a Charter for the province of Maryland, 
Ceeilius Calvert set about to make a settlement of the terri- 
tory. About two hundred colonists embarked in the Arh and 
Dove, from the Port of Cowes, in the Isle of Wight, on the 
22(1 of November, 1633, and after a long and stormy voyage 
landed March 25th, 1634, on St. Clements' (now Blackiston's 
Island), Potomac River. They immediately took possession 
of the country with religious ceremonies, and on the 27th of 
March commenced a settlement on the main land at St. 
Mary's. The first Governor was Leonard Calvert, the brother 
of Ceeilius. In 1649 the Assembly passed that noble Act of 
Religious Toleration that has placed Maryland so far above her 
sister colonies, and which threw the mantle of charity over all, 
and in the benefits of which the Catholic, Quaker and Puritan 
participated ; for all had experienced the rigors of religious 
persecution. The colony truly became the " Land of the 
Sanctuary," and by this act all sects and denominations of 
Christians were secured for the first time in the public profes- 
sion of their faith, and in the exercise of their religion, accord- 
ing to the dictates of their consciences. 

A century after the passage of the Act of Toleration, 
Baltimore Town was unknown. About 1659, however, 
Baltimore County was erected, and its bounds included 
the present Counties of Harford and Cecil and part of Kent. 
In July, 1661, the Baltimore County Court was held at the 
dwelling house of Captain Thomas Howell, now in Cecil County. 
In 1674 there was an Act passed for the erection of Court 
Houses in each County, and soon after it was completed at 
the County Seat, Baltimore, which was on the east side of Bush 



river, near its mouth. No stone now marks the site of the 
namesake of the present metropolis of the State. Two more 
Baltimore Towns were christened by Acts of Assembly, about 
1744, in Worcester County, but could not be made to exist. 

Baltimore County Seats. 

The next County Seat, of Baltimore County was Joppa, 
which was created by Act of Assembly passed in 1724. It 
was situated on the east side of the Gunpowder River, about 
half a mile south of the Philadelphia and Wilmington R. R. 
bridge. Joppa received and shipped to England more tobacco 
than any other town in the County. It contained, besides the 
Court House, the Jail, St. John's Church, several large stone, 
dwellings, warehouses, a ship-yard and a foreign commerce of 
consequence with Europe and the West Indies. ^ 

In 1706 a new Town was authorized to be erected on 
Whetstone Point, where Fort McHenry now is. This pro- 
posed Town came to nothing. In July, 1659, patents for lands 
on the Patapsco River, near the present site of Baltimore, were 
granted to several persons. Seventy years after, on the 14th 
of July, 1729, a petition was read in the Upper House of 
Assembly, signed by the leading men of Baltimore County, 
praying for the erection of a town on the north side of the 
Patapsco River, upon the land supposed to belong to Messrs. 
Charles and Daniel Carroll. On the 8th of August, 1729, the 
bill was passed " for erecting a Town on the north side of the 
Patapsco, in Baltimore County, and for laying out in lots sixty 
acres of land in and about the place where one John Flemming 
now lives." John Flemming was a tenant of the Carrolls, and 
his house stood near the banks of Uhler's Run, not far from 
the present intersection of Charles and Lombard Streets. The 
Act constituted Maj. Thomas Tolley, Wm. Hamilton, Wm. 
Bnckner, Dr. George Walker, Richard Gist, Dr. George 
Buchanan and Col. Wm. Hammond, Commissioners of Balti- 
more Town. On December 1, 1729, the Commissioners agreed 
with Charles Carroll for the purchase of the lot mentioned in 
the Act of Assembly at forty shillings per acre, for sixty acres. 



Founding of Baltimore. 

Oil the I2tli of January, 1730, seven of tlie Commissioners, 
and Philip Jones, Deputy County Surveyor, began to hiy 
out the Town, beginning at a " bounded red oak " on the water 
side, at a spot not very far from the present corner of Light 
and German Streets. The line tiien ran northwesterly to about 
Sharp Street, where it struck what was called the "Great 
Eastern Road." It followed tiiis line northeast to a sharp 
angle on the precipice corner of Saratoga and St. Paul Streets ; 
then ran down the devious line of Jones' Falls to near its 
present intersection with I lolliday Street ; thence in a straight 
line to the Basin near Lombard Street; and thence by the 
water front to the place of beginning. The lot was traversed 
by three streets — Long Street (novv Baltimore Street), Forrest 
Street (now known as Charles Street) and Calvert Street. 
There were also nine lanes, called South, Second, Lovely, 
Light, Hanover, Belvidere, East, St. Paul's and German lanes. 

The Town Wharf was at the foot of Calvert Street. The 
lots were numbered from one to sixty of one acre each, and 
the first "taker up" was Mr. Charles Calvert, who selected, 
Jan. 14, 1730, lot No. 49, on the northeast corner of the Basin 
and Calvert Street. 

First White Native of Baltimore. 

In 1723, John Moale, an English merchant, settled near 
Baltimore and married the daughter of Captain Robert 
North, who took up lot No. 10, at the northwest corner 
of Calvert and Baltimore Streets. Here it was that Ellen 
Moale, the first white native of Baltimore, was born. In 
172t), Edward Fell had settled east of Jones' Falls. In 
1730 his brother, William Fell, bought the tract of land east 
of Jones' Falls, and thus gave a name to Fell's Point. On 
August 8th, 1732, the Assembly passed an Act for the erec- 
tion of Jones' Town, "a town on a creek, divided on the east 
from the Town lately laid out in Baltimore County, called Balti- 
more Town, on the land whereon Edward Fell keeps store." 



8 

This was the beginning of "Old Town." Fell's store was on 
Front Street near French Street. Jones' Town was laid out 
July 20th, 1732, and in 1745 it was united to Baltimore 
Town. Several other additions were made to tiie Town but it 
was of slow growth. 

Baltimore in 1752. 

In 1752 there were but twenty-five houses and two hun- 
dred inhabitants. The whole male population of the City 
could have been comfortably seated in a City railroad car. 
Fifteen years later, in 1768, Joppa, " fallen from its high 
estate," was deprived of its ))rivileges, and its dignity of 
" County Town," was conferred on Baltimore, where a Court 
House and prison were erected. The old Court House was built 
on the site of the Battle Monument, the bluff at St. Paul and 
Favette and Lexing^ton Streets extended on to Calvert, then 
descended in an abrupt precipice to the Falls, and the Court 
House stood sheer and toppling under the very edge and curb of 
this bluff, until by the ingenuity of Mr. Harbaugh, it was, in 
1784, underpinned and arched, and Calvert Street opened. At 
that time the arch under the Court House was supplied with 
stocks, pillory and whipping post. This old Court House was 
torn down about the year 1813 and the present one built. Mr. 
Robert Gilmor who came to Baltimore during the Revolution, 
once said that he caught crabs with a stick while walking around 
the water front on Exchange Place ; that he learned to swim in 
Jones' Falls at the corner of Calvert and Lexington Streets, boats 
coming up to the powder house which stood at the foot of the pre- 
cipice on which the Court House was erected; that he saw a man 
drown at the corner of Calvert and Lexington Streets, and that 
in the Revolutionary War he saw a mounted bugler swamped in 
the quagmire in front of where The Sun office now is. Calvert 
Street then ceased at the south side of Fayette Street ; there 
was no Holliday Street on account of the Falls and Steiger's 
meadow; there was good shooting of snipe and woodcock on 
Harrison's marsh, where the Centre Market now stands ; there 
was a mill where the gas house now is, and Englehart Yeiser 



V 



liad not yet cut tlic canal tlirongli Steiger's meadow, which 
diverted Jones' Falls from its old horse shoe bend into its 
present bed. 

The First Churches. 

Our ancestors did not forget their religious duties or alle- 
giance to the Cliurch of England. The first church built in 
Baltimore Town was St. Paul's— on lot No. 19 of the original 
Town plat — being the most elevated ground of the Town, and 
part of the property on which tlie present edifice of the same 
name is erected. It was not finished until 1744. The next 
church was the German Reform, built in 1756; the Lutheran 
and Quaker in 1758; the Presbyterian in 1763; the Catliolic 
in 1770, and the ISIethodist and Baptist in 177^^. 

The mind was fed by James Gardner, who kept school at 
the corner of the present South and Water Streets, but there 
was, as yet, no market house for the creature comforts of the 
,'illagers, who probably relied independently on the vegetables, 
fruit, poultry and pork raised by their own industry within 
the bounds of their lots. But one was, nevertheless, soon set 
on foot, and not long afterwards, in 1763, erected by subscrip- 
tion at the northwest corner of Market and Gay Streets, with a 
large room above it, for poi)ular assemblages, balls, and amuse- 
ments suitable to a rather demure population. Having a 
market house, five or six dozen houses and three churches to 
protect, a fire department became necessary ; so that every 
householder, under a penalty of ten shillings of the realm, was 
required to " keep a ladder," to be used in case of fire : while 
an equal sum was imposed, as fine, if he allowed his chimney 
to blaze in the midst of so inflammable a neighborhood. The first 
volunteer fire company was the old Meciianical, which was 
oriranized in 1763. 

Fence Around Baltimore. 

In 1755 the Town needed protection from the incursions of 
the Western savages, who, it is alleged, after the defeat of 
Braddock, penetrated the country past Forts Frederick and 



10 

Cumberland, and pushed their plundering and murdering 
parties to within fifty miles of Baltimore. There is a tradition 
of this period, that the country people were once actually 
driven into the Town, and that the women and children were 
placed, for safety, in the vessels in the harbor. However, to 
protect them from the incursions of the Indians, the Town's 
people erected a palisade around the village, shutting out all 
ingress or egress, except by a gate on Market Street near 
McClellan's Alley, and another on the upper part of Gay Street 
near the bridge, while a smaller aperture for foot passengers 
was cut in the circuit near the head of Charles Street, which 
then was the cliffs about Saratoga. The inhabitants, however, 
were never indebted to their fence for safety from the Indians, 
and in the course of time it served for fuel. 



French Immigrants. 

In 1756 about one thousand of the Acadians, who had been 
driven out of Nova Scotia, were brought to Baltimore. Some 
were taken into private families, and others lodged in a large 
empty house near the corner of Fayette and Calvert Streets, 
where tliey lived peaceably and were undisturbed in the exer- 
cise of their religion. As they were very industrious and 
thrifty, they soon began to build some small houses for them- 
selves on South Charles Street near Lombard, giving to that 
quarter the name of " Frenchtown " — a name it retained until 
a very few years past. Baltimore was still further indebted 
for a French population of about fifteen hundred in 1793, 
when the refugees from the insurrection at Cape Francois 
came in the grand convoying fleet, principally to tiie 
Chesapeake. 

First Newspapers. 

The Maryland Gazette, published at Annapolis, filled the 
wants of the community for a newspaper up to 1773, but in 
that year the inhabitants of Baltimore determined to support a 
public press of their own. Accordingly, on the 20th of 



11 

Aiio-iist, 1773, William Goddanl, who liad removed from 
Piiihidelphia, issued the first newspaper published in Baltimore. 
It was called the '' Maryland Journal and Baltimore Adver- 
tiser," and issued weekly from tlie office which formerly 
stood on the site of the present Sun Iron Building. Goddard 
was also the founder of our j)resent National Postal System, and 
his sister, Mary K. Goddard, was the first postmistress or post- 
master of Baltimore, as well as the first " i)rintress" or *' editress " 
of a newspaper. 

During the Revolution. 

The history of the Town during; the Revolutionary War is 
a part of our national history, and its events and heroes are so 
well recorded by the historian of our City and State in his 
larger works, that it is perhaps unnecessary in this rapid 
sketch to recount the local occurrences of the seven years' 
struggle and trial. It may be well to state, however, that at 
Long Island, at White Plains, at Harlem Heights, at German- 
town, at Brandywine, at Monmouth, at Camden, at Cowjiens, 
at Guilford, at Eutaw and at Yorktown, the best blood of 
Baltimore was poured out freely for the common cause, and it 
was Baltimore soldiers who were first and always ready to 
meet face to face, with fixed bayonets, the veteran legions of 
British regulars. Among the noble band who deserve a con- 
spicuous notice upon the page of history were Gist, Howard 
and Smith. They served throughout the war at the head of 
Maryland and Baltimore troops, and led them on many a victo- 
rious charge. 

Peace and Prosperity. 

The suspension of iiostilities with Great Britain was joy- 
ously celebrated by an illumination on the night of the 21st 
of April, 1783. It was not onl}' a rejoicing for release from 
war and for liberty and independence, but of anticipated pros- 
perity arising from freedom, personal, agricultural and com- 
mercial ; and, in truth, it is from this i)eriod that Baltimore 
may date a material progress unexampled in the history of 



12 

American cities. Renewed attention to Baltimore Town as a 
seat of trade followed tlie cessation of active warfare and the 
prospect of peace. Many merchants from other States and 
from Europe settled here, and in 1782 the streets were begun 
to be paved, especially the main or Market Street (now called 
Baltimore), which iii spring and fall was generally imi)assable 
from Gay to the falls. Sidewalks were laid, and the width of 
the cellar doors and of the old-fashioned porches of front doors 
were limited, so that the burghers could not take up too much 
space allowed for pedestrians while enjoying their evening chat 
or pipe before their dwellings. Wharves, too, were built, and 
laws made to guard the streets from nuisances, and the harbor 
from street drainage; while the streets themselves were only 
to be used by vehicles of a certain breadth of wheel. To 
defray these expenses, an auction tax was laid on the sales of 
the only auctioneer in the Town ; a tax was also imposed on 
public exhibitions and on assessed property; and, that common 
panacea — an annual lottery — was authorized to bring up the 
arrears of deficiencies in municipal expenses. 

The First " Civic Fathers." 

The executive of this system was a Board of Commissioners 
with ample powers to aid the Town Commissioners ; so that the 
new board — in fact the first " Civic Fathers " of Baltimore — 
composed of William Spear, James Sterrett, Englehart Yeiser, 
George Lindenberger, Jesse Hollingsworth, Thomas Elliott and 
Peter Hoffman — was made a sort of body politic and corporate, 
authorized to fill their own vacancies, appoint a treasurer, 
collect fines for the use of the Town, appoint constables and to 
report their accounts to the Town Commissioners. The inter- 
course with " the Western Country," too, was not neglected, 
for the value of the West was already known, and its virgin 
lands and mineral wealth coveted. This intercourse was pro- 
moted by roads through Frederick and Hagerstown and 
onward to the Monongahela and Ohio, while regular lines of 
stages were established, and began to ply betwixt Baltimore 
and Frederick and Annapolis. An attempt to light the streets 



13 

succeeded, as well as tiie plan of a day police and a night watch 
to guard the villagers while they slept. Our 8,000 townsmen 
of that day were, however, so exemplary in their demeanor, 
both in daylight and darkness, that but throe constables were 
required for hours of business, and but fourteen watchmen for 
the niirht. We have advanced in civilization and numbers 
since then. 

Baltimore Clippers. 

When the Federal Constitution was adopted and ratified in 
1788, the springs of commercial enterprise were again set in 
motion. Our shipping consisted principally of the smaller 
vessels, engaged in the West India trade, besides a few larger 
ones, which were gradually constructing and beginning to par- 
take in the carrying of produce to foreign markets. Indeed, in 
proportion to the carrying trade, ship building grew, which has 
made our celebrated " Baltimore Clippers " famous. These 
schooners and brigs built on the Chesapeake Bay, after the 
model of what was then known as the "Virginia Pilot Boat," 
frequently showed a speed under sail that is now seldom 
attained by the best European steamers, and, under experienced 
and daring masters, they soon became the sovereigns of the 
West India trade, and even of some of the European traffics ; 
so that, in the hands of intelligent merchants, they were the 
instruments of extraordinary enterprise and success. No one 
resource contributed so much to the use of Baltimore as these 
swift " skimmers of the seas," and it is strange that their model 
was for many years unmatched outside the Chesapeake Bay. 

The Tobacco Trade. 

The staple productions of Maryland were then tobacco, corn, 
wheat and flour; the tobacco trade being principally conducted 
by foreign agents, mostly with European capital, and largely 
in foreign ship[)ing. Before the Revolutionary War, it was 
usual to ship tobacco for account of the planters, who received 
advances from the British agents at the "landings" on the 



14 

Chesapeake, and who kept establislunents throughout the 
province, in the small towns on the rivers, as well as the 
inspection houses, where they had stores for the supply of 
planters. 

In 1784 a large commercial establishment from Holland 
was formed and settled here, and made large purchases of 
tobacco for Dutch account and direct shipment, thus superseding 
to a very great extent the English trade with Great Britain. 
Other houses from Bremen and Hamburg followed the example 
about this period, and partook of the trade in a similar way, 
still carrying principally in foreign vessels, until gradually the 
Baltimore merchants themselves, with enlarged means, began 
to participate for their own account — building clipper ships of 
considerable tonnage to carry the staple abroad. Thus by 
degrees the British became almost entirely excluded from the 
tobacco trade, and, as they disappeared, the tobacco and grain 
trades became concentrated at Baltimore, with but a small share 
left for Georgetown. 

No companies had as yet been chartered for insuring marine 
risks, but certain men of business prepared policies of that class, 
which were subscribed to a large amount by merchants and 
others of responsible means. 

In 1787 the Baltimore Fire Company was incorporated, and 
followed by the Maryland, Equitable, and other companies; 
while the bank of Maryland was incorporated in 1790, with a 
capital of |300,000. This institution survived and flourished 
until 1835, when it expired in a mob caused by excitement of 
its defrauded creditors. A branch of the Bank of the United 
States in Baltimore followed in 1792, and the Bank of Balti- 
more in 1795. 

Baltimore Incorporated as a City. 

At this time there was much agitation among our people on 
the subject of a Charter for the Town, includinga Mayor's Court. 
Accordingly, in 1796, on the last day of the year, Baltimore 
was incorporated by the General Assembly, and became a City. 
James Calhoun was elected the first Mayor. The City contained 



15 

then about 20,000 persons, 3,500 liouses, mostly of brick, and 
about 200 warehouses. Twenty-seven ships, tiiirty brigantincs, 
and forty-four other vessels — 101 in all, sailed from this port, 
having an aggregate capacity of 13,564 tons. In 1798 the 
exports and imports amounted to $12,000,000, and Baltimore 
ranked as the third commercial City of the Union. In 1730, 
when the City was laid out, it contained but sixty acres, divided 
into three streets and nine lanes, and was purchased for $600. 
The City is now fifteen miles square, comprising in all about 
9,600 acres, occupied by 80,000 houses, containing a population 
of over 350,000, and divided by 982 streets and alleys. In 
1752 our merchant marine amounted to two vessels of about 
twenty tons each. To-day our shipping consists of about 
2,500 vessels, with a tonnage of 9,000,000; while our foreign 
exports in 1879 amounted to $40,044,489. At this time 
many efforts were made to add institutions, societies and 
churches to the City. Under the influence of Bishop Carroll 
and Rev. Dr. Bend, the old Baltimore Library was estab- 
lished, which was afterwards merged into the Maryland His- 
torical Society, formed in 1844. There was also established 
about the same time several Lodges of Free Masons, and a 
company of mounted volunteers, under Captains Plunkett and 
Moore, and Saniuel Hollingsworth ; of artillery, under Captain 
Stodder, and of riflemen, under Captain Allen. In 1773 the 
Almshouse was erected on the lot bounded by Biddle, Eutaw, 
Garden and Madison Streets; and in 1793 the site of a 
hospital for the accommodation of strangers had been selecteil, 
and an asylum for these purposes was, after some time, erected. 
It should be mentioned, too, it was at this period that the old 
fort, erected in preparation for the Revolutionary War, on 
Whetstone Point, was repaired, and the " Star Fort " of brick 
erected, the ground being ceded to the United States, and the 
work called Fort McHenry, in honor of James McHenry, of 
Baltimore, the first Secretary of War under Washington. 
The demand abroad for our floui- stimulated the " millino- 
interests" of our City, and the aijundant water-power of Jones' 
Falls and Gwynn's Falls was taken advantage of by the erec- 
tion of numerous mills. In 1784 Leonard and Uaniel Bar- 



16 

nitz erected a brewery at the corner of Hanover and Baltimore 
Streets, and about the same time Messrs. Gurtz and Leypold 
built a sugar refinery in Peace Alley, between Conway and 
Camden Streets; while Mr. John Frederick Amelung came 
from Germany with a number of experienced glass manufac- 
turers, and erected an extensive factory on the Monocacy, in 
Frederick County, whence, towards the close of the century, the 
works were removed, enlarged and re-established on the south 
side of the Basin, at the foot of Federal Hill, under the 
auspices of Mr. John F. Friese, and in later days of the Bakers. 

The Star Spangled Banner. 

In the war of 1812 the inhabitants of Baltimore did all they 
could to aid and strengthen the hands of the Government, and 
took the lead in fitting out efficient privateers and letters-of- 
niarque to annoy and distress the enemy. In many cases the Bal- 
timore privateers captured English vessels at the mouths of their 
own ports in the British Channel. And when our beautiful 
City was attacked by a powerful fleet and army, how nobly did 
our citizens defend themselves against the hand of the spoiler ! 

Just before the bombardment of Fort McHenry by the 
British, on September 13, 1814, Francis S. Key, of Maryland, 
had gone with a flag of truce on board the Admiral's ship to 
solicit the release of a friend wiio had been taken prisoner; 
and he was not allowed to return until the attack was over. 
Believing that the fate of Baltimore was hanging in the balance, 
he passed the night in extreme anxiety until the dawning light 
showed the flag still flying above the ramparts. During this 
night, and while pacing the deck, he composed the famous 
song, "The Star Spangled Banner," one of the most spirit- 
stirring poems ever written, which gave expression not only to 
his own feelings, but those of all patriots throughout the 
country, and was everywhere sung with enthusiasm. 

Evidences of Prosperity. 

The reputation of Baltimore for unequalled prosperity and 
local advantages attracted great attention in all parts of the 



17 

Union as soon as peace was made in 1815, and commerce re- 
snmed its channels. An influx of sanguine and enthusiastic 
immigrants immediately took place, and activity pervaded all 
classes, and every branch of industry. Real estate went beyond 
its former extravagant prices; yet the increased population 
could hardly be acijommoilated ; so that extensive improve- 
ments in buildings were made, while rents in the City became 
exorbitant. It was about this time that Baltimore was embel- 
lished with many public edifices, and especially (appropriate as 
the crown of its successful commerce,) by the splendid Mercantile 
Exchange, which still exists, though, in our day, has been sold 
to the United States Government for a Post Office and Custom 
House. The new Court House, begun in 1805, had been 
already finished in 1809, when the old one that encumbered the 
centre of Monument Square, was taken down. The Medical 
College on Lombard Street, a part of the University of Mary- 
land, was completed in 1812. In 1809, the City Spring on 
North Calvert Street Vv'as erected and permission given for the 
erection of the '' Washington Monument." In 1813 the first 
steamboat, called "The Cliesapeake," was put on the line fx'om 
Baltimore to Frenchtown. In 1813 the Masons lai«.l the corner- 
stone of their old temple, now occupied by the City and Circuit 
Courts. In 1812 the first Lodge of the Order of Odd Fellows 
in America was established in Baltimore by Thomas Wildey 
and others, 

Baltimore and Ohio Railroad. 



For many long years, and far into the present century, the 
great and steadily increasing Western trade, whose natural 
channels led it to Baltimore, was carried on by wai>ons. The 
older citizens can still remember the long trains of husce 
" Conestoga Wagons " that used to enter the City by the great 
northwestern and northern highways. On April 12, 1827, a 
company was organized, with Fliilip E. Thomas as its Presi- 
dent, George Brown as Treasurer, and tvvelve Directors, with 
Charles Carroll, of Carrollton, at their head, who showed at 
once their boldness and prevision by naming the new enter- 



18 

prise the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad. The subscribed 
capital was over $4,000,000, of which $500,000 was furnished 
by the corporation of Baltimore. The corner-stone was laid 
on the 4th of July, 1828, and in October of the same year work 
was begun. In May, 1830, it was opened to Ellicott's Mills. 
Horse-power .was first used, but the attention of the directors 
had been called to the use of locomotives in England, and on 
the 28th of August, 1830, an engine constructed by Peter 
Cooper, of New York, was placed upon the road, and though a 
sin^'-uhir loukino- affair to modern eves, it demonstrated for the 
first time in America what was to be the motive power of the 
future. From that time onward our progress has been equal, 
though slow and substantial, receiving indeed considerable 
impetus from the opening of the Baltimore & Ohio Kailroad to 
the Ohio River in 1853, and to St. Louis in June, 1857. The 
Washington Branch Road was completed in 1835. The corner- 
stone of the Northern Central Road was laid on the 9th of 
August, 1829, one hundred years from the date of the passage 
of the law for the laying out of Baltimore Town in 1729. 

Lines or Communication. 

Rival cities had not been blind to the splendid prize for 
which Baltimore was reaching, and rival lines were established 
to divert the trade. It was seen, that in order to hold her 
advantages, lateral connections must be made, and a through 
line still further West and Northwest established. Suffice 
it to say, that under the energetic administration of Presi- 
dent John W. Garrett, the lines of the Baltimore and Ohio 
Railroad liave been extended through Southern Ohio, reaching 
Portsmouth and Cincinnati, offering to the great grazing regions 
of Central Ohio, Kentucky, Indiana, Illinois and Missouri the 
nearest outlet to the sea. Its Southern lines traverse V^irginia 
and connect with the great system of roads reaching to tlie 
Gulf. Its Chicago Branch taps the great grain, provision and 
lumber markets of the Northwest, and turns into it the traffic 
of Lakes Michigan and Erie. To all this vast area, containing 
more than one-third of the whole population of the Union, and 



19 

riclier in products of agriculture than any otlicr of equal 
extent, the Baltimore & Ohio oifers the shortest and cheapest 
route to the Atlantic seaboard. To accommodate the immense 
traffic brought to the City by these Western extensions, ample 
terminal facilities have been provided at Locust Point for 
meeting all the needs of shipping and the foreign business. 
The Northern Central, the Baltimore & Potomac and the 
Western Maryland aiford additional lines of communication with 
the West and South. There are two lines of steamers plying 
between Baltimore and Europe — the North German Lloyds, 
sailing weekly, for Bremen via Southampton, and the Allan 
Line, weekly, between Baltimore and Liverpool, via Halifax. 
There are also coastwise lines to Boston, New York, Philadel- 
phia, Norfolk, Richmond, Wilmington, Charleston, Savannah, 
Havana and New Orleans. 

Feuits of Enteeprise. 

As we had in 1816 been the first City of the Union to intro- 
duce the general use of gas as an illuminating material, and in 
1827 to require the incorporation of the first great railroad, and 
in 1830 the first steam passenger locomotive, so we were the 
first to enjoy the electric telegraph which was tested and estab- 
lished between Washington and Baltimore in 1844. 

While these material improvements were devising for the 
future, Baltimore took other steps for intellectual advancement. 
A number of Societies were incorporated, and on the 21st of 
September, 1829, the first public school was opened in our City, 
and the system inaugurated which, with various changes, has 
proved materially usetul to thousands of our citizens. lu 
March, 1827, William Patterson presented to the City what is 
now known as " Patterson Park •/' but the pride and boast of 
the City is the beautiful Druid Hill Park, which was purchased 
by the City in 1860, for §500,000, and afterwards enlarged by 
other purchases to an area of about 1000 acres. The interest 
on the cost and the expense of maintaining these parks is pro- 
vided for by a tax of one cent per passenger conveyed by the 
passenger railways. 



20 

Public Buildings. 

Baltimore is noted for its hotels and places of amusement. 
Fords Grand Opera House, on Fayette near Eutaw Street, is 
one of the most imposing theatrical buildings in the country, 
and the proprietor, Mr. John T. Ford, is one of the best known 
theatrical managers. No business foreign to the stage is con- 
ducted within its walls; the entire interior is devoted to 
theatrical and kindred uses. The most imposing public build- 
ing in Maryland is the new City Hall, which was dedicated on 
October 25, 1875. The Peabody Institute was dedicated in 
the presence of its founder October 25, 1866. The Johns 
Hopkins University was opened on October 3, 1876. 

Baltimore's progress was thus rapid, sound and elastic, until 
the great Civil War of 1861 broke out, which put a check, for 
the time being, upon our growth and prosperity. The City, 
though its prosperity suffered from the Civil War, still had cer- 
tain partial compensations in the increased knowledge obtained 
by our countrymen of its geographical importance, of the value 
of Maryland lands, streams and mines, as well as in the tempo- 
rary depot trade in military supplies and troop transportation. 
But the war stopped the great trade of Baltimore with the 
South, and broke the City's connection with the West, Since 
the conHict ended, the revival of this suspended prosperity has 
been steady and firm ; nor can anyone observe our thronged 
streets, our crowded cars, our packed vans, the gay crowds of 
pleasure- seekers in our parks, the wide-awake, healthy alacrity 
of our people at all times, the rows of comfortable houses, built 
and building in every direction, without being aware of Balti- 
more's substantial growth and prosperity.

., .icht im Damraerlichte der Saoje, wie die ersten 
3 r Anfange grosser Stadte der alten Welt, son- 
^S^ dern in der hellen Beleuchtung der Geschichte 
steht die Griindung der Handels-Metropolen 
dieses Continents ; man weiss, wer die ersten 
weissen Bewohner von Boston, New- York, 
Philadelphia und Baltimore waren, dieLegis- 
lative-Akten und Munizipal-Records bezeich- 
nen genau den Tag, an dem die aufbliihenden Niederlassun- 
gen der Anglo-Sachsen in der neuen Welt zuerst stadtische 
Gerechtsame erhielten ; ein amerikanischer Lokalhistoriker 
braucht deshalb keine Griindungslegende auszuschmticken 
oder kritisch zu untersuchen. 

BALTIMORE, die Metropole des Sudens der Union 
und die funfte Stadt dieser Republik (trotz dem Census, 
welcher uns erst die siebente Stelle anweist, weil St. Louis 
und Boston ihre Vorstadte mitzahlen, Baltimore aber nicht) 
— Baltimore, das ohne seine Vorstadte 330,000, aber mit 



22 

denselben 393,796 Seelen zahlt, wurde vor 150 Jahren 
ziierst als "Town" vermessen und hatte daraals kaum die 
Grosse eines kleinen deutschen Fischerdorfes. Kaum 125 
Jahre vorher hatte der erste Weisse, der kiihne Seefalirer 
und Abenteurer John Smith, zuerst die drei Arrae des 
oberen Patapsco besucht und die geraumigen Hafen entdeckt, 
welche die wachsende Handelsstadt im Laufe dieses Jahr- 
hunderts allraalig mit ihren Werften, Strassen und Hauser- 
massen umsaumte. 

Noch ein halbes Jahrhundert nach Smith's kiihner Er- 
forschungsfahrt blieb die Gegend eine Wilduiss, in der sich 
kaum ein Paar Ansiedler niedergelassen, und erst gegen 
Ende des 17. Jahrhunderts wurden der Pflanzer mehr und 
sie konnten an eine engere Vereinigung denken ; doch dau- 
erte es immer noch bis gegen Ablauf der ersten 25 Jahre 
des vorigen Jahrhunderts, ehe sie den Gedanken zur That 
machten. 

Zur besseren Orientirung kann man die Geschichte 
unserer Stadt in vier verschiedene Epochen eintheilen : — 
1. die ersten Niederlassungen der Weissen am oberen Pa- 
tapsco ; 2. Griindung der Stadt und maritimer Aufschwnng 
derselben ; 3. anscheinender Stillstand und innere Fort- 
entwickelung als Fabrikstadt, und 4. neuer Aufschwnng 
des See- und Binnenhandels und beispielloses Wachsthura.

Capitain John Smith, der beriihmte Seefahrer und Gran- 
der von Jamestown, Virg., der iufolge seines Romans mit 
Pocahontas, der Tochter des machtigen Indianerhauptlings 
Powliatan, von einem poetischen Nimbus umstrahlt wird, 
welcher dauern wird, so lange die weisse Rasse Besitz von 
diesem Continente hat, erzahlt in dem Berichte iiber seine 
sechste Erforschungsreise, die er mit zwolf Mann in einem 
offenen Boote die Chesapeake -Bay hinauf machte, dass er 
den nordwestlichen Zufluss der Bay Bolus taufte, weil der 
rothe Thon der Ufer dem ''Bole Armonick" glich. Dieser 



23 

Fluss Bolus mit seinen drei Arraen ist der lientige Patapsco. 
John Smith uud seine zwolf Gef'ahrten waron jedenf'alls die 
ersten weissen Manner, welche diese Gegend betraten. Sie 
fanden dieselbe froi von Indianern, als vollstandige Wild- 
niss. Dies geschah iiu Jahre 1608. 

Lord Baltimore, welcher 20 Jahre spiiter in's Land 
kara, sich aber an der Siidwestspitze des heutigen St. Mary's 
County niederliess, bef'uhr die Chesapeake - Bay ebenl'alls, 
doch ist es zweifelhaft, ob sein Fahrzeug in einen der drei 
Arme des Bolus einlief. Dieser humane Grundherr zog 
aber allmiilig viele Ansiedler herbei, sowohl aus England, 
als audi aus Pennsylvanien und den neu-englischen Ansied- 
lungen, und die Laudereien an der Bay und ihren Neben- 
fliissen wurden nach und nach in Cultur genoramen, die un- 
durchdringlichen Walder begannen sicli zu lichten. Im Jahre 
1G5*J wurde Baltimore-County organisirt ; dasselbe umfasste 
damals nicht nur das heutige County dieses Namens, son- 
dern auch noch Harford und Carroll, sowie grosse Theile 
der Counties Anne Arundel, Howard und Frederick. 

Der erste weisse Ansiedler im heutigen Stadtgebiete ist 
walirscheinlich Charles Gorsuch gewesen, der 1661 i'iinf'zig 
Acker Land auf Whetstone Point patentiren liess. Ferner 
finden wir ura jene Zeit David Jones, nach welchera Jones 
Falle benanut wurden, Wm. Fell (Fells Point), Alexander 
Mountenay, Abraham Clarke und Thomas Cole als Pflanzer 
um den nordostlichsten Arm des Bolus, der unterdessen den 
Namen Patapsco erhalten hatte, angesiedelt. Clarke war der 
erste SchifFsbauer in dieser Gegend. 

Um das Jahr 1668 kommen scbon die deulscben Namen 
Blomfield, Diering und Kemp unter den Pflanzern vor. In 
diesem Jahre landeten auch die ersten Seeschiffe im oberen 
Patapsco, Das Gerichtshaus befand sich in Joppa, am 
Gunpowder, einem Orte, von welchera heute kaum noch 
eine Spur vorhanden ist; nur der Name eines Vicinalwegcs 
in Baltimore Count}'', old Joppa Road, erinnert noch an 
jenen Hafen und Countysitz. 



24 

Am 19. April 1706 wurde ^'Whetstone Point" zuni 
Town erhobon. 

Im Jahre 1726 standen auf dem Gebiete der raittleren 
Stadt drei Wohnhauser, eine Miihle und ein Tabacks- 
luagazin, Docb von jenera Jahre an besiedelte sich die 
Gegend schnell, wenn auch die meisten Ansiedler auf Locust 
Point bliebeu. 

Am 24. Juli 1729 richteten verschiedene Ansiedler von 
Cole's Harbor, Fell's Point, Moale's Point und Mountenay's 
Neck eine Petition an die Colonial-Gesetzgebung, eine Stadt 
erbauen zu diirfen, und schon am 8. August desselben 
Jahres wurde die Bill Gesetz. Man beabsiclitigte Anfangs, 
die neue Stadt am nordlichen Ufer der Spring-Gardens aus- 
zuraessen, doch Hr. John Moale, welcher in jener Gegend 
werthvolle Eisenerzgruben besass, wollte keine Stadt und 
setzte es in Annapolis durch, dass dieselbe nordlich vora ost- 
lichen Arm locirt wurde. Die Vermessung begann am 
12. Januar 1730, Es wird nicht uninteressant sein, zu be- 
merken, dass schon ein Deutscher zu jener Zeit hier ange- 
siedelt war, nemlich Joh. Fleraming, dessen Hans an der 
Siid-Charles- nahe Germanstr, stand, und jedenlalls wurde 
diesem zu Ehren eine der neun Lanes "Germanstr." ge- 
nannt, indem dieser Strassenname mit unter den funfzehn 
Originalnamen erscheint. Die neue Stadt erhielt den Na- 
raen '^ Baltimore Town," zu Ehren des damaligen Grund- 
herrn von Marj land, Lord Baltimore; aber trotz ihres rei- 
chen Tauf()atben war sie dooh sehr armselig, kaum 60 Acker 
gross. Die ostliche Grenze bildeten Jones Falls, die nord- 
liclie Saratoga- und die westliche Liberty- Strasse. Am 
4. October 1730 wurde die neue Town -Verwaltung or- 
ganisirt und die Stadt Baltimore nahm ihren bescheidenen 
Anfang. 

Ausser dem deutschen Namen Flemming finden wir 
noch den der Familie Uhler, welche um jene Zeit von Fre- 
derick hier einwanderte.

Die Zeit l)is zum Jalire IToO war iiir Baltimore die 
Periode von "Anno Toback." AUes, was damals aiif dem 
lientigen Gebiete Baltimore's angesiedelt war, pflanzte Ta- 
bak, handelte in Tabak. bczablte seine Schulden mit Tabak 
und verkanfte seine Arbeit nnd Prodnkte fiir Tabak. Erst 
mit Griindnnc!^ der Stadt anderten sich die Verbiiltnisse, aber 
Baltimore wurde und blieb noch lange Zeit der erste nnd 
p:rosste Tabaksmarkt der Welt. Mit jedem Jabre nabm die 
Zabl der IScbifFe und der europiiiscben Einwanderer zu ; 
unter letzteren waren selbstverstandlicb zablreicbeDeutscbe: 
Kanfleute aus den Rheinlanden sowobl, als auch sogenannte 
"Redemptionisten," welcbe durch mebrjiihrige Leibcigen- 
scbaft ibre Ueberfabrt abverdienten. 

Scbon um die Zeit der Unabbangigkeits - Erklarung 
batte Baltimore, die jungeStadt am Patapsco, die weit altere 
Provinzial -Haujitstadt Annapolis iiberfliigelt. Ein nnter- 
nebmendes Geschlecbt grosser Kaufleute und Seeiabrer 
macbte das kleine Baltimore nocb vor Ablauf des 18. Jabr- 
bnnderts zu einer Metropole des Seebandels der neuen Welt. 
Welcbe bedeutende Rolle die Deutscben im vorigen Jahr- 
bunderte in Baltimore spielten, bat uns der tficbtige Lokal- 
bistoriker Tbos. Scbarf in seiner Vorlesung iibcir die Deut- 
scben in Baltimore auseinandergesetzt. Er sagt : "Die 
Gebitider Barnitz liessen sicb im Jabre 1748 in Baltimore 
nieder und erricbteten eine Brauerei aut" der Stidwest-Ecke 
der Baltimore- und Hanoverstrasse. Ungefabr funf Jabre 
skater kam Dr. C. F. AViesentbal, ein deutscher Arzt, nacb 
Baltimore, wo er sicb eine ausgedebnte Praxis erwarb und 
34 Jabre lang tbatig war. Er starb im Jabre 1789. Aus 
alien Mittbeilungen, die liber sein Wirken in Baltimore auf 
unsere Zeit gekommen sind, gebt bervor, dass er ein sebr 
gescbickter Arzt war und sicb um das Gemeinwobl der Bur- 
ger Baltimore's verdient macbte Keiner unter den spatcr in 
Baltimore lebenden Aerzten braucbt sicb beute seines Vor- 
giingers, des ersten deutscben Arztes in unserer Stadt, zu scba- 
meii. Dr. Andr. W^iesenthal, seinSobn, war Secretair, Scbatz- 



26 

nieister unci Bibliothekar der ersten in Baltimore in's Leben 
gerufenen medizinischen Gesellschaft. Im Jahre 1753 zog 
David Larsch, ein pennsylvanischer Deutscher, nach Balti- 
more imd baute an der Siidwest-Ecke der Baltimore- und 
Gaystrasse ein Wirthshaus. Andreas Steiger, ebenfalls ein 
Deutscher, kaufte ira Jahre 1756 auf der Nordost - Ecke der 
Gay- und Baltimorestrasse ein Grundstiick an und erwarb 
sich auch auf dem ostlichen Ufer von Jones' Fallen Grund- 
eigenthum, welches er drainiren und zu einera Weideplatze 
einrichten liess. Dieser Weideplatz wurde spater, als er 
bereits langst bebaut war, "Steiger' s Meadow" genannt. Im 
Jahre 1782 wurden die ersten Stadtvater der Stadt Baltimore, 
sieben an der Zahl, ernannt ; fiinf dieser Stadtvater waren 
Deutsche und hiessen Jakob Sterrett, Engelhardt Zeiser, 
Georg Lindenberger^ J. HoUingsworth und Peter Hoffmann. 
Sieben Jahre spater setzte Engelhardt Zeiser es durch, dass 
die Jones' Falle in zwei Arme getheilt wurden. Die Deut- 
schen, auf welche ich oben verwies, eigneten das tiefliegende 
Land nahe dem Punkte, wo die Falle ihre Hauptbiegung 
machten. Sie durchstachen einen Kanal, der von einer 
Miihle an der Bathstrasse quer durch Steiger 's "Meadow" 
nach Jones' Fallen lief. 

Unter den deutscben Kaufleuten, welche durcb ihr 
Kapital, ihren Uuternehmungsgeist und ihre Energie in so 
ausserordentlichem Masse zum Aufbliihen des Handels der 
Ver. Staaten beitrugen, verdienen keine raehr hervorgehoben 
zu. werden, als Friedr. und Johann Brune, Vater und Sohn. 
Diese fruheren Mitglieder der noch jetzt bestehenden Firma 
F. W. Brune & Sohne waren die Nachfolger der Firma Von 
Kapff & Ansbach, welche im Jahre 1795 etablirt ward. Die 
Mitglieder dieser Firma wurden bedeutende Schiflfsrheder, 
importirten grosse Quantitaten deutsches Linnen und expor- 
tirten grosse Ladungen Tabak und Colonialwaaren. Den 
Haui)thandel fiihrten sie mit Siid-Amerika und die eifrige 
Concurrenz, welche sie damals in den hiesigen Kaufmanns- 
kreisen wachriefen, hatte einen seltenen Aufschwung der 
Schifffahrt und zugleich auch die Erbauung jener schnell- 



27 

sep;elQden und unter dem Naraen ''Baltimorer Clipper" he- 
kannten Fahizeuge ziir Folge. Hr. Fried. W. Brune starb ira 
84. Lebensjahre, iiachdem er die Stadt Baltimore von einem 
Platze von 30,000 zu einerGrossstadt von 200,000 Einwohnern 
hatte aufwachsen sehen. Ferner istBaltimore auch demGriin- 
der der Firma Peter Hoffmann & Sohne ausserordentlich ver- 
pflichtet. Der Senior dieser Firma wurde im Jab re 1742 in 
der Nabe von Frankfurt am Main geboren und kam sebr 
jung nacb Amerika, wo er spater die genannte Firma griin- 
dete, die vor 70 Jabren das erste Manufaktur-Gescbaft Bal- 
timore's bildete. Seltsam geniig ist es, dass das Gescbafts- 
gebaudejener Firma gerade aufdemselben Platze stand, auf 
welcbem sicb beute das pracbtige Gebaude des Mauufaktur- 
waarenbandlers Hrn. Hamilton Easter erbebt. 

Nocb viele andere Namen dcntscber Kaufleute lassen 
sicb bier anfiibren, wie z. B. Falk, Focke, Albert, Meyer, 
Scb\Yarz, Coben, Scbafer, Bobn, Brantz, Wascbe, Scbroder, 
Liirman, Benziuger, Reinecker, Diffenderffer u. A. 

Als die Revolution in den dreizebn Colonien ausbracb, 
war Baltimore nocb ein unbedeutender Ort mit kaum 10,000 
Einwobnern ; erst wenige Jabre vorber, 1768, war es der 
Countysitz geworden und bis zu jenem Jabre mussten seine 
Burger ibr Recbt nocb vor dem Countygericbte in Joppa 
sucben. Aber in dem kleinen Seestadtcben steckte ein Unter- 
nebmungsgeist, der darauf ausging, altere und grossere Ge- 
meinwesen zu iiberfliigeln. Auf der von Clarke angelegten 
Scbifiswerfte, die den Scbiffsbau scbon nicbt mebr allein be- 
triebund mebrereConcurrenten erbalten batte, wurden bereits 
Seescbiffe gebaut und Baltimore's Hafen macbte den gros- 
seren Hafen von Annapolis und Joppa fiiblbare Concurrenz. 
Annapolis war die Colonial - Hauptstadt und seine Burger 
standen zu sebr unter dem Einflusse der Beborden, was die 
Entwickelung der Stadt bebemmte; in Baltimore waltete ein 
freierer Geist, der, uneingescbrankt durcb bevormundende 
Verordnungen, nacb dem Besten strebte. Scbon 1769 wurde 
die freiwillige Feiierwebr bier erricbtet und unter den secbs 
Griiudern derselben war der Deutscbe Georg Lindenberger.

Als das Doppelgef'echt von Lexington nnd Concord ge- 
Kchlagen war und der Continental-CongressTruppen verlangte, 
bildetesich in Maryland ein vollstandiges dentsches Regiment 
nnd eine deutsche Artillerie-Cornpagnie. Diese boiden Trnp- 
penkorper wurden ans Baltimore-, Frederick- nnd Harford- 
Connty rekrntirt und fochten mit grosser Anszeichnung nnter 
Gen. Small wood. Bei Long-Island, bei White-Plains, auf 
den Harlem -Hoben, bei Germantown, bei Brandywine. bei 
Monmouth, bei Cowpens, bei Guilford und bei Eutaw ver- 
gossen sie ihr Blut fiir ihr Adoptiv-Vaterland, nnd sie waren 
immer bei der Hand, wenn es gait, den britischen nnd hessi- 
schen Truppen mit gefalltem Bayonnete zu begegnen. 

Als der Continental-Congress 1776 von den Englandern 
ans Philadelphia vertrieben wurde, fand er in Baltimore eine 
Znflnchtsstatte und zwar hielt er seine Yersammlungen in 
einem von einem Deutschen, Hrn. Jacob Fite, neu errich- 
teten Gebaude an der Ecke von Baltimore- und Liberty- 
strasse. 

Nach Beendigung des Unabhangigkeits-Krieges bllihte 
Baltimore ausserordentlich rasch empor und schon 1796 wurde 
es von der Staatsgesetzgebung zur ''^City" erhoben. Unsere 
Clipperschiffe waren auf alien Meeren zu finden und gehorten 
zu den kiihnsten Blockadebrechern wahrend der Contineutal- 
sperre. Die verschiedenen kleinen "Towns," wie "Cole's 
Harbor," f^Fell's Point," und "Baltimore Town," waren 
allmalig zusammen gewachsen, oder doch durch Briicken 
und Strassen verbunden . Noch vor Ablauf des Jahrhunderts 
wurde ein standiges Theater erbaut, Post- und Express-Yer- 
bindnngen mit Philadelphia und den westlichen Counties 
und Virginien eingefUhrt, kurz: in jeder Hinsicht waren die 
Baltimorer Handelsherren thatig, ihrer Stadt Bedeutung zu 
verschaffen. Im Kriege von 1812 liefen in Zeit von drei 
Wochen aus dem hiesigen Hafen 44 Kaperschiffe aus und 
die Heldenthaten dieser Baltimorer Kaperflotte bilden ein 
glorreiches Kapitel der Geschichte jenes Krieges. Baltimore 
stand daraals als Seestadt liber New-York und raachte Boston 



29 

und Philaclelpliia den Rang streitig ; jedenfalls hat e.s iui 
Seekriege jener Zeit mehr gethan, als jcne Stiidtc zusaramen. 

Die gewaltigen Anstrengungen zu Wasser nnd zu Lande, 
Avelche unsere kleine Stadt in jenem Kri ge machte, blieben 
in England nicht unbcachtet, und die britischen Befeblshaber 
wiirden von London aus bescnders angewiesen, das 'Tiraten- 
nest am Patapsco" ganz exemplariscb zu ziichtigen. Im 
Soramer 1814 lief Admiral Cockburn mit eincr grosseren 
Flotte in die Bay ein, verlieerte die Pflanzungen am West- 
ufer, drang bis Washington vor und zerstorte diePegierungs- 
gebiiude der jungen Bundesbauptstadtj welcbe damals kaum 
25 Jabre existirte. Sodanu zog er seine Landarmee und 
seine Seemacbt vor Baltimore zusammen. AUes gritf bier 
zu den Waffen. Die Landspitze McHenry, welcbe zwei 
Deutscbe, Griest und Lautenscblager, bereits im Revolutions- 
kriege befestigt batten, wurde rascb durcb Erdwerke ver- 
starkt und ein deutscber Artillerie-Offizier, Oberst Armstadt, 
leitete die Vertbeidigung ; er beizte den britiscben Linien- 
scbiffen dermassen ein, dass sie sicb rascb aus der gefabrlicben 
Nabe seiner VoUkugeln und Granaten verzogen. Bei dieser 
Gelegenbeit wurde von Francis Key das "Lied vom Sternen- 
hanner"' gedicbtet, welcbes seitdem die Nationalbymne des 
amerikanischen Volkes geworden ist. Am 12. Septbr. kam 
es beiNortb Point zur Scblacbt; Gen. Ross fiel und die Vete- 
ranen Wellington's aus dem Kriege auf der iberiscben Halb- 
insel wurden dort von ungeiibten Milizen gescblagen. W^ie 
der Doppelsieg der Griecben bei Plataa und My kale am 25. 
Septbr. 479 v. Chr. den Persern die Lust zu neuen Einlallen 
in Griecbenland benabm, so wurde durcb den Doppelsieg 
der Amerikaner am 12. Septbr. der zweite Krieg mit Eng- 
land faktiscb beendigt ; an demselben Tage nemlicb, an 
welchem die Eno-lander auf Nortb Point von den Baltimorern 
gescblagen wurden, wurde ibnen audi auf dem Cbaplainsee 
eine stattlicbe Flotte vernicbtet. Dass die Deutscben Balti- 
more's bei Nortb Point scbon in grosser Auzabl mitfocbten, 
beweisen die deutscben Namen auf dem Scblachten-Denkmal, 
aber nocb mebr die Musterrollen des ganz aus Deutscben 



30 

bestehenden Jiiger- unci Scliiitzen-Bataillons. Dem Obersten 
Armistead wurde von den dankbaren Baltimorern ein Denk- 
mal gesetzt, welches aber in den sechsziger Jahren ver- 
schwand.

Nacli Beendigung des zweiten Unal)bangigkeitskrieges 
schwang sich Baltimore erst recht erapor und in jeder Rich- 
tung wirkte es schaffend imd balmbrechend. Schon 1816 
wurde der erste Flussdampfer gebaut ; 1817 wurde hier das 
Koblenleuclitgas erfunden und Baltimore ist die erste Stadt 
der Welt^ welcbe Gasbeleuchtung hatte. Unterdessen war 
die Einwanderung aus Deutscbland so stark gcAvorden, dass 
die deutschen Kheder und KauHeute es nothwendig fanden^ 
eine deutsche Gesellschaft zum Schutze hiilfloser Einwanderer 
zu griinden. Besonders zablreich war die Einwanderung im 
Jahre 1818. Im Jahre 1820 macbte der deutsche Drucker 
Hanzsche den zweiten Versuch, eine deutsche Zeitung hier zu 
griinden, nachdem schon 17^5 der deutsche Drucker Sauer 
aus Pennsylvanien ein deutsches Blatt hier herausgegeben 
hatte, das aber nicht lange bestand. 

Baltimore's Schifiswertten lieferten in jener Zeit die 
besten Schitfe der Welt, unsere Schnellsegler durchpfliigten 
alle Meere und Avaren die Freude und der Stolz jedes See- 
manues. 

Doch der Wurm existirte bereits, der an Baltimore's 
commerzieller Bliithe nagte: es war der "Erie-Kanal," wel- 
cher fiir Kew-York die Kornkammer des Westens erschloss ; 
der friiher von Baltimore geplante "Chesapeake-Ohiokanal" 
konnte leider nicht bis zum Ohio verlangert werden. 

Der Unternehmungsgeist Baltimorer Kaufleute war 
jedoch auch diescr Calamitat gewachsen. Im Jahre 1825 
wurde die "Baltimore-Ohio-Bahn" geplaut, 1828 der Grund- 
stein gelegt und 1829 war sie bis Eliicotts-Mills fertig ; es 
war die erste Fassagier- und Frachtbalm der Welt. Am 28. 
August 1830 fuhr die erste Dampt-Locomotive auf dieser 
Bahn, erfunden und gebaut von Feter Cooper, dem jetzt 



31 

greisen New-Yorker Millioniir. Leider daiierte es dann noch 
an 22 Jahre, ehe die Balm den Ohio erreiclite iind diese Zeit 
Avar fiir Baltimore's Aufbliihen verbangnissvoll ; es blieb 
hinter New-York und Philadelphia zuriick. 

Aber der Geist der Strebsamkeit, welch er bei allem 
spriichwortlichen Conservativismiis dem Baltimorcr ange- 
boren zu sein scheint, war nicht auszurotten; der Seehandel 
krankte, aber die Stadt warf sich auf die Industrie iind in 
den dreissiger und vierziger Jahren erstanden hier eine An- 
zahl Fabriken und Geschafte, welche seitdem einen Weltruf 
erworben haben ; wir nennen hier Wm. Knabe & Co.'s Piano- 
Ibrte-Fabrik, die Tabaks-Fabrik von Gail & Ax, Wm. Wil- 
ken's Haar - Fabrik_, Wendell Bollmans Briickenbau-Eta- 
blissement, August Vogeler & Lo.'s Droguenhandlung und 
Wm. Numsen's Praserven - Geschalt ; merkwurdigerweise 
sammtlich von Deutschen und mit der einzigen Ausuahme 
von Gail & Ax, von unbemittelten Deutschen ins Leben 
gerufen. 

In Baltimore wurde 1842 das erste Eisengebiiude der 
Welt fiir die 1837 gegriindete ''Sun" errichtet, und nach 
Avenigen Jahren rasselte in den Kellern der ,,yun-' die erste 
Cylinderiorm - Presse der Welt; auch war es diese Zeituug, 
welche die erste telegraphische Depesche jjublizirte, indem 
1844 die erste Telegra^jhenlinie des Continents zwischen 
W^ashington und Baltimore fertig wurde. Die alteste Zeituug 
Baltimore's ist der "American," welcher sein Entstehen auf 
das Jahr 1773 zuriickfiihrt. 

Im Jahre 1 840 griindete Friedrich Eaine, damals kaum 
17 Jahre alt und ebenfalls mittellos, wie seine mitstrebenden 
Zeitgenossen Knabe, W^ilkens undNumsen, den '-Deutschen 
Correspondenten,' Avelches Blatt seitdem zu einer der ersten 
deutschen Zeitungen des Landes empor gewachsen ist. 

Die deutsche Einwanderung, welche Anfangs der dreis- 
siger Jahre abermals starker stromte, nahm allmalig wieder 
ab, bis sie 1848 aufs Neue in Fluss kam und unserer Stadt 
ein fleissiges, betriebsames Element des deutschen Mittel- 
standes zufiihrte, das sich allmalig des Kleingewerbes in 



32 

derselben Weise bemaclitigte, wie zii Anfang des Jahrhnn- 
derts die deutschen Kaufleute den Grosshandel an sich zu 
Ziehen wussten. Metzger, Backer, Schneider, Schreiner, 
Klempner, Kiirschner u. s. w. sind hier zum grossten Theile 
Deutsche, und die grosse Mehrzahl dieser deutschen Gewerb- 
treibenden ertreut sich eines verhaltnissmassigen Wohl- 
standes. 

Die achtundvierziger Einwanderung leitete unserer 
Stadt ein deutsches Element zu, welches wie Sauerteig unter 
den in Stagnation gerathenen lang-ansassigen Deutschen 
wirkte ; lange Zeit stiessen sich die "Grauen" und die 
"Griinen" gegenseitig ab und es ging ein Jahrzehnt vor- 
iiber, ehe sie sich vereinigten ; denn diese '"'griinen" Deut- 
schen brachten ganz neue politische, soziale und religiose 
Ideen mit, welche selbstverstandlich den "Grauen" ein 
Grauel waren. Wie viel Schaum und Wind aber auch dar- 
unter gewesen sein mag, so darf man doch den hohen Werth, 
welchen dieser Bevolkerungs-Zuwachs fiir das deutsche Ele- 
ment hatte, nicht verkennen : der Anglisirungs - Prozess 
wurde durch denselben wesentlich aufgehalten und die Deut- 
schen begannen imGegentheile germanisirend auf ihre anglo- 
amerikanischen Mitbtirger einzuwirken. Oder ist es nicht 
germanisch, dass heute in jedem Baltimorer Hause am Weih- 
nachtsfeste ein Christbaum brennt, dass Musik und Gesang 
alleuthalben gepflegt werden, dass man heute in der feinsten 
Kestauration das noch vor einem halben Menschenalter ver- 
ponte deutsche Bier trinkt ? Gegen Ende der 40-er Jahre 
bestand nur eine Brauerei hier und diese fristete ein kum- 
merliches Dasein ; heute hat Baltimore ftinfundvierzig 
solcher Geschafte, darunter mehr als ein Dutzend, deren 
Biere Exportartikel geworden sind. 

Auch in geistiger Beziehung hob sich das Deutschthum. 
Der "Correspondent' konnte schon 1844 denVersuch wagen, 
taglich zu erscheinen und war 1848 eine gesicherte Institu- 
tion als tagliches deutsches Blatt ; verschiedene deutsche 
Druckereien wurden gegrtindet, aus deren Offizinen im Laufe 
der Zeit zahlreiche Biicher, Famphlete und Sonntagsbliitter 



33 

liervorgingen ; C. W. kSchneidereith etablirte sich J 849, 
Th. Kroh 1852, der '^Baltimore Wecker" wurde 1852 ge- 
griindet iind erschien bis 1878 tiiglich. Die Lithographen- 
lirma A. Hoen & Co. entstand 1848. 

Von den deutschen Gesangvereinen reicht niir der "Lie- 
dei'kranz"' in die Zeit der ''Graiien"; er entstand im Jahre 
1836 ; alle anderen Gesangvereine wurden durcli die Nacli- 
achtundvierziger gegriindet. Die "Concordia" griindete sich 
1847, der "Allgemeine Arbeiter-Kranlcen -Untersttitzungs- 
Verein" iind die ''Balto. Schiitzen - (Jesellschai't" im Jahre 
1851; der "Soz. dem. Turnverein" wurde 1850 in's Leben 
gerufen. Im Jahre 1859 machte das Baltimorer Deutschthum 
seine erste grossartige Demonstration durch das Steubenfest. 
In den sechsziger Jahren waren die Deutschen ein Bevolke- 
rungs-Element Baltimore's geworden, welches verschiedenen 
Stadttheilen geradezu seinen Stempel aufdriickte. Deutsche 
Kirchen und Schulen, gesellige und Wohlthatigkeits-Ver- 
eine entstand en zu Dutzenden und deutsche Geschaftshauser 
und Firmen wurden zu Hunderten. wenn nicht Tausenden, 
in's'Leben gerufen. 



Der Biirgerkrieg beeinflusste nur gewisse Fabrik- und 
Handelszweige unserer Stadt gilnstig ; im Allgemeinen 
krankte unser Geschaftsleben. Ein Importartikel um den 
andern, welchen die Baltimorer friiher monopolisirt batten, 
war ihren Hiinden entschliipft ; europaischeWaaren wurden 
schon lange nicht mehr direct in Baltimore eingefuhrt, 
wenigstens nur in unbedeutenden Quantitaten, Unsere Gross- 
handler und Zwischenhandler waren langst gewohnt, New- 
<^ York als ihren Markt anzusehen, welches mit seinen Polypen- 
armen den Haupt - Export aller amerikanischen Stapel an 
sich gerissen hatte und folglich auch die Einfuhr vermittelte. 
In den Geschaftsstrassen unserer Stadt begann. Gras zu 
wachsen und unsere Werften zerfielen. 

Um die Mitte der sechsziger Jahre wurde die Baltimore- 



34 

01iio-l>ahn bis St. Louis iind Chicago verlangert und diese 
Tliatsache gab den Handelsverbaltnissen eine andere Wen- 
dung. Die Triiume der Handelsherren vor 50 Jabren, der 
Pattersons, McKims u. s. w. begannen sich zu verwirldicben. 
Eine Dampfer-Verbindung mit Liverj)ool Avurde in's Leben 
geiufen und am 27. Miirz 1868 wurde die erste Dampfer- 
Verbindung init Bremen eroffnet ; von Stund an nabm unser 
flandel einen neuen Aufscbwung und beute ist Baltimore 
bereits der zweite Ausfubrhafen des Landes. 

Ungeacbtet aller Riickscblage hat Baltimore docb seinen 
Rang im Census zu behaupten gewusst, und wiihrend der 
letzten zehn Jahre hat es in der Handelsstatistik seinen alten 
Platz als Exporthafen wieder erobert. Bei den Vortheilen 
seiner Lage — es ist dem Siiden und dem Westen um 100, 
resp. 250 Meilen naher als NeAv-York — und mit den in sei- 
nem Hafen gebotenen Facilitaten, lasst sich noch gar nicht 
absehen, welchen Rang Baltimore zu Ende des Jahrhunderts 
unter den amerikanischen Hafenstadten einnehmen wird. 

Baltimore ist jedoch nicht allein gross als Handels- und 
Fabrikstadt, als die Vaterstadt niitzlicher Erfindungen und 
Neuerungen : es ist auch weltberiihrnt durch den Gemein- 
sinn seiner Burger. Keine Stadt des Landes hat Namen 
von Philanthroj)en aufzuweisen, \xie J. Patterson, John 
McDonogh, George Peabody, Johns Hopkins und Thonias 
Wilson. Das Millionen-Geschenk Pattersons ging zwar in 
der grossen Bankkrisis von 1837 verloren, aber deshalb sollte 
er von seinen dankbaren Mitbiii-gern doch nicht vergessen 
werden. Die "Johns Hoj)kins Universitat' ' nimmt trotz 
ihrer Jugend, schon ihren Rang unter den ersten Hochschulen 
des Landes ein, und das von Hrn. Hopkins gegriindete 
Hospital verspricht das grossartigste Krankenhaus der W^elt 
zu werden. — Auch die Deutschen haben ihrem Gemeinsinne 
durch eine vortreffliche Waisen-Anstalt ein schones Denk- 
mal gesetzt. 

Unter den deutschen Privat-Schulen erfreuen sich die 
der Zions-Gemeinde und die des Hrn. Eriedrich Knapp eines 
bedeutenden Rufes ; im Uebrigen ist die Stadt den Bedurf-

MAYOR'S MESSAGE 

TO THE 

CITY coumiL 



Baltimore^ September 21., 1880. 

Gentlemen — Upon the reassembling of your honorable body 
there are some matters to which I desire to call your attention. 
It seemed to be the public sense that some recognition should be 
taken of the fact that the present year is the 150th anniversary 
of the founding of the city of Baltimore. With this object, the 
Historical Society of Maryland suggested that there should be a 
civic celebration of the event, and appointed a committee to 
confer with the Mayor and act with a committee to be appointed 
by him in taking action in the matter. For a while nothing 
further was done in this connection; but it evidently being the 
popular desire that the suggestion of the Historical Society should 
be carried out, a large and influential body of our German-Amer- 
ican citizens, determining that this desire should be gratified, 
with praiseworthy patriotism effected an organization and com- 
menced active preparations for the celebration. Having ap- 
pointed a working committee and selected the mayor as their 
honorary president, I in turn appointed a sub-committee from 
that first selected to represent the municipality and act in con- 
junction with the committee appointed by the German-American 
citizens. The conference between these committees has]resulted 
in a determination to have a civic festival, commencing on October 
Uth and ending October IGth. During the period thusjselected, 
it is proposed j to have a demonstration worthy jof the [event 
commemorated. 



Very respectfully, 

Ferdinand C.*Latrobe, Mayor.
